2017 · Baron de L

Domaine de Ladoucette, in France's Loire Valley, is a historic estate owned by the Comte Lafond family since the late 18th century. It holds the most important and renowned vineyards in Pouilly-Fumé. Under Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, the domaine continues a tradition of high quality, producing rare cuvées like the Baron de L in exceptional vintages. The family has extended its expertise to Sancerre, using the Comtes Lafond name for premium wines bottled in antique-style flasks. A notable acquisition is the Clos de la Poussie, a south-facing amphitheater in Sancerre, which yields the distinctive Haut de la Poussie cuvée.
